Does anyone have the scoop on Omega Supreme and then the new redecoration Omega Sentinal? I was wondering if anyone predicts one or the other will be rare.
Which product has been easier for you to find in stores?

We've got lots of the original version floating around just about every toy department in every mall here in PI.  |

Both versions have been relatively scarce here in New Orleans, but I've seen more of Omega Supreme than Omega Sentinel.
I'm sure more of the Omega Sentinels will be popping up more frequently soon, though, the same way Unicron did way back when.

I'm expecting a situation similar to that of Unicron and Black Unicron. The first was overpurchased and warmed shelves for ages, so the repaint was under purchased. There will be a scare for a short while after Energon ends, in which people will pay outragious prices to get Omega Sentinel, until a few hundred unsold overstock show up on ebay.
Omega Supreme wasn't purchased by stores in the same insane quantities as Unicron, but I have seen it warming many a shelf. And yet I've only seen one Omega Sentinal to date.

I just got back from Target and saw 9 Sentinels on Sale for $31.50.

The "regular" one (half yellow half blue) I have seen everywhere. Now that it's after xmas, I haven't seen it anywhere, but before that they weren't uncommon. The all-blue one I saw very briefly at TRU & that was it...POOF they're gone. Personally I like the all-blue one better but I'd already gotten the first one & didn't feel like shelling out 30 bucks again for just a color variation on a robot I wasn't all that bonkers about.  He is cool because he's so big, but I'm not really crazy about the other modes (they're ok, just nothing really great). |

My update is that they STILL aren't on shelves around NYC. My contacts tell me that they sold very well and are popular/ were popular with the kids for Christmas.
Are they on the shelves where you are?
When will Energon end now that there is a new TF series coming?
